  • Known Issues with Installing FX Factory?

    Posted by Dan Brockett on March 11, 2008 at 4:25 pm

    Hi all:

    I seem to recall numerous instances where people have had issues with various weird FCP conflicts and everyone here and over at the LAFCPUG asks if they have the FX Factory plug ins installed.

    Here is the system:

    OSX 10.4.1
    G5 dual 2.3 GHz (PCIe)
    Aja Kona 3
    FCP 5.1.4
    QT 7.2
    And I do mainly deal with P2 footage

    I need the Image Flow plug in for a video I am finishing up. Should I go ahead or am I going to regret it? Clashes with anything on my system?

    Thanks for your advice.

    Dan

    FXFactory v1 and v2 both caused FCP to no longer see the MXF files to import them. But this conflict was found and reported to Noise Industries, and they came out with a small update to v2 that fixes this issue. So as long as you have v2, and install the update, you will be fine.

    v1 still has this issue and the only way to fix this is to buy the upgrade and update it as well.

    Hi Shane:

    Thanks for the heads up, I knew that you would be up to speed on this. I am not actually buying FX Factory but CoreMelt says that I need to install FX Factory for ImageFlow to function. I am not sure how all of this works together but I will make sure that I download V2 and the update.

    Thanks,

    Dan
